NFL Rumors: 49ers Want Brock Purdy Contract Extension 'Soon' amid Negotiations
Briefly

The San Francisco 49ers are in negotiations to extend quarterback Brock Purdy's contract, firmly viewing him as their franchise player despite a challenging 2024 season. Although Purdy's 2024 performance saw a decline, his prior achievements, including a Super Bowl appearance and Pro Bowler status, reinforce the team's belief in his potential. Linebacker Fred Warner voiced strong support, comparing Purdy to elite quarterbacks. However, extending his contract will shift from a low-cost deal to significant financial implications for the team, given projections of his market value nearly reaching $60 million annually.
The Niners have never wavered on Purdy as their franchise quarterback, not after his breakout run, not after leading them to a Super Bowl.
Fred Warner has played against the best quarterbacks in the NFL. He'd stack up Brock Purdy with the elites of the game.
